This morning n largo number of the grain men of bolH Nebraska and Kansas assembled In thj ! c y , to attend the second annual meeting of the Nebraska nnd Kansas Grain Dcalnrs Insurance as sociation. This { solely ivas org.ini/.eil two years ngo , nnll its nim was to Interest the grain growers , both of tills state ns also of Northern1 Kansas in u move ta protect themselves against the rapacity of regular insurance companies. Thu rates of the latter hail become so high that tlio grain nt n had inndn up their mind that they corfld stand thorn no longer. At the litel1 meeting the project of the now association was discussed , and later a plan which was subse quently adopted was formulated \vhk'h practically , at least so far us the mem bers of the association nro concored , docs away with the insurance of outside corporations. The grain of the moinbors is insured by the association against lire and lightning , nun at reasonable rates nnd on a mutual basis. The association now numbers about llireo hundred mem bers , nnd comprises , the leading men in the districts mentioned. The ollicers for the lirst year are P. C. Illmobnugh , of Omaha , secretary ; T.V. . Lowery , of Lin coln , president , nnd F. E. Lawrence , of this city , assistant secretary.

A num ber of subjects was discussed , ono of the principal of which was that as to whether thu association should undertake to in- sitro tlio stock , property and private resi dences of the members. The question aroused quite a lengthy debate , nut was finally decided by resolution to have nothing to do with any property except that of the grain and elevators belonging to the members of the association. The election of ollicers for the ensuing year resulted in the following : Presi dent , T. W. Lowroy , Lincoln ; Vice Presi dent , P. C. llimobungh , Omaha ; Secre tary , F. E. Lawrence , Omaha , and Treas urer , Patrick Egan , Lincoln. . So far as could be ascertained from a number of thu members the association , lifter ono year's existence , is in. an ex cellent condition. It is still , however an experiment , yet it bids promise to hold out at least until the insurance companies reduce their figures to a rate low enough to enable grain ' .ij-.dcnlcrs to insure tit reasonable tigurcs. During the year which immediately , prucedcd the estab lishment ot the association , the insurance companies took ant 'Of the pockets of grain men tor' ' { insurance in this state no ,10835 than $50,000.

Thi's/JfuQt'ser. / tlio grain men thinking , with the result that what they now insure coststhem : : but about three per cent per _ aiinnin''iA.s the years pass by , there iSf'scnrcqlyariy doubt but that this'rate'will till''ftirtHuf ' bo reduced. Tho.suvi'iigs'of'tltti ' Jlrst year .have now been put into a sinking fund , and when a goodly sum is laid by , dividends will be declared in the same manner as with any other mutual company.
